The driver of the pickup truck crossed the center line and collided with an oncoming Cadillac. The impact injured the car's driver, and the deceased victim was a passenger in the car. This is the at-fault driver's second DWI; he was driving on a restricted license at the time of this deadly crash.

The victims have our deepest sympathies, and we wish the survivor a speedy recovery.

While no amount of money could make up for the family's loss, those left behind should contact a North Carolina wrongful death attorney and personal injury lawyer to discuss the accident and determine whether a claim should be filed. A financial award could ease financial burdens and represent some measure of justice.
